Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are pleased you could join us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word.

Further to our open letter last week you might care to listen to A. C. Griffith speak on "the purpose of chemtrails." In this interview he supports Dr. Peter Beter's advice to the US government that Russia planted nuclear bombs throughout the United States during the '70s, and was directing the weather, as was reported in the case of hurricanes Katrina and Ivan. Dr. Strangelove, alias Satan, has taken over the government of that nation. It is time to leave this insane world; praise the Lord for providing the way.

The focus of our main article this week is on knowing Christ's Bride is God's Chosen People, predominantly non-Semitic Spiritual Israel, born of the King of Judah and Jerusalem which is above and is free from the curse of the Law, Judahites inwardly whose circumcision is of the heart by the Spirit, and not in the flesh by the "letter." We will also describe the breach and the office of mediator through the ages.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Mexica Movement: NOT Hispanic! NOT Latino!We are Nican Tlaca, the Indigenous People of Canada, US, Mexico, and Central America. We reject the European divisions of our continent.

Comment: There you have it. According to Daniel 9:27 and Matthew 24:8, there will be no peace until Jesus returns in the Millennium. After World War Three is ended, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. "We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. . ." Someone is behind this movement. Brother Branham prophesied, "both white and colored will fight again and die like flies. . ." (Third Exodus, p. 24:2). This is one of the purposes of "multiculturalism" (or miscegenation), "as it was in the days of Noah" (Matthew 24:37) occasioned by a lack of Christ.

Path to National Suicide May 22, 2007 – "At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected?

"I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."

So said Abe Lincoln to the Young Men's Lyceum in Springfield. Observing the Senate last week, and looking over the latest figures from the Census Bureau, America is now risking national suicide.

Last week, senators meeting in secret produced a bill to legalize our 12 to 20 million illegal aliens. If a path to citizenship becomes law, nothing will stop the next invasion. As President Bush acknowledges, 6 million tried to breach our southern border in his first five years. One in 12 - 500,000 - had a criminal record. . .

What is happening to us? An immigrant invasion of the United States from the Third World, as America's white majority is no longer even reproducing itself. Since Roe -v- Wade, America has aborted 45 million of her children. And Asia, Africa and Latin America have sent 45 million of their children to inherit the estate the aborted American children never saw. God is not mocked. . .

Addressing the Knights of Columbus in 1915, Theodore Roosevelt warned, "The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities."

In every way possible, Americans have said they do not want to take this risk with their country. Why, then, are our elites taking it? Full story: worldnetdaily.com

Comment: Speaking before a special meeting of the Emergency Council of European Rabbis in Budapest on January 12, 1952, Rabbi Emanuel Rabinovich said concerning progress towards their NWO, ". . . We will openly reveal our identity with the races of Asia and Africa. I can state with assurance that the last generation of white children is now being born. Our Control Commissions will, in the interests of peace and wiping out inter-racial tensions, forbid the whites to mate with whites. The white women must cohabit with members of the dark races, the white men with black women. Thus the white race will disappear, for mixing the dark with the white means the end of the white man, and our most dangerous enemy will become only a memory . . ."

The full text of this speech was originally made available to Common Sense (N.J., USA) by Eustace Mullins and brought to the attention of Captain William Guy Carr by the Canadian Intelligence Service; he published it verbatim in Pawns in the Game (pp. 104-106). This is one of many similar quotes by prominent Jews like Theodore Herzl, Rabbi Reichorn, Dr. Oscar Levy, Bernard Lazare, Rabbi Stephen Wise and Maurice Samuel who were all inspired by the Talmud. Jesus Messiah, who abhorred the Talmud, prophesied this evil (Matthew 24:37).

In August 15, 1871, Albert Pike wrote to Mazzini that after World War Three between the Political Zionists and the leaders of the Islamic world, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. We quote his own written words taken from the letter catalogued in the British Museum Library:

"We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time" (William Guy Carr, Pawns in the Game, p. xv-xvi).

US Threats to IranDespite the chaos in Iraq, there is no indication that Bush has ruled out the use of force against Iran. It seems that the American president is determined to tighten the noose around Tehran. Last week, he said Washington and London would push for new UN sanctions against Iran if it refused to suspend its nuclear program. His comments came as the US House of Representative rejected two measures that would have banned the Bush administration from attacking Iran without congressional approval. "The president's saber rattling against Iran is only increasing and is eerily similar to the march to war with Iraq. We must act to prevent another war of pre-emption". . . Full story: aljazeera.com

Comment: Nine US warships are in the Gulf for show of force. US Navy officials said Iran was not notified of plans to sail nine ships, including two aircraft carriers, through the Straits of Hormuz, a narrow channel in international waters off Iran's coast and a major artery for global oil shipments.

The maneuver raises pressure on the Islamic Republic, coinciding with a report by the UN atomic watchdog on Iran's nuclear program, which could lead to tougher sanctions.

Oil climbed towards $70 as the US ships sailed into the straits, through which 40 percent of globally traded oil passes. . . Full story: yahoo.com

And British propaganda. Iran is secretly forging ties with al-Qaida elements and Sunni Arab militias in Iraq in preparation for a summer showdown with coalition forces intended to tip a wavering US Congress into voting for full military withdrawal, US officials say. . .

New Presidential Directive gives Bush Dictatorial Power May 21, 2007 – The National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive, signed on May 9, 2007 declares that in the event of a "catastrophic event," George W. Bush can become what is best described as "a dictator":

"The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government."

This directive, completely overlooked by the media, and given no scrutiny by Congress, literally gives the White House unprecedented dictatorial power over the government and the country, bypassing the US Congress and obliterating the separation of powers. The directive also placed the Secretary of Homeland Security in charge of domestic "security. " Full story: whitehouse.gov

Yellowstone Supervolcano getting ready to blow its Cork Satellite images acquired by ESA's ERS-2 revealed the recently discovered changes in Yellowstone's caldera are the result of molten rock movement 15 kilometers below the Earth's surface, according to a recent study published in Nature.

Using Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry, InSAR for short, Charles Wicks, Wayne Thatcher and other US Geological Survey (USGS) scientists mapped the changes in the northern rim of the caldera, or crater, and discovered it had risen about 13 centimeters from 1997 to 2003.

InSAR, a sophisticated version of 'spot the difference,' involves mathematically combining different radar images, acquired from as near as possible to the same point in space at different times, to create digital elevation models and reveal otherwise undetectable changes occurring between image acquisitions. . .

"After Jesus Messiah had fasted forty days and nights and was craving food, the Tempter said, If You are the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. (Here we see the distinction between an Israelite born of the flesh whose soul is ruled by the worldly lusts of his corruptible body and mortal spirit which will perish with time and the world, and a Spiritual Israelite born of the revealed Word, whose soul in union with the eternal will of God, has overcome these beggarly elements). Jesus returned Satan's parry with a thrust of the sword of the Lord in the firm hand of faith. It is written: Man shall not live by bread alone, (like the natural Israelites whose names were removed from the Book of Life because of unbelief at Kadesh Barnea, placed under the curse of the Law man cannot satisfy, and perished in the desert then as they perish in a spiritual wilderness today), but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:2-4).

God was a husband to natural Israel in respect to His love for Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, but when their children breached that Covenant He put them away in divorcement. John 1:1-2, "In the beginning God was alone with His eternal thoughts not yet expressed in WORD form, and the Logos was with Elohim, and the Logos was Elohim (Proverbs 23:7). A word is a thought before it is expressed. God in not now thinking or even taking counsel with Himself. His thoughts are eternal and they are real. He cannot add to His knowledge for He is omniscient and infinite. God's thoughts are the Attributes of what He is and forever will be. The Word or Logos, which is the expression of Himself, was entire and complete before time and creation began".

The eternal Spirit was alone with His thoughts, and He was lonely. He was not even God, for a god is an object of worship, and before creation there was nothing to worship Him. He wanted to express His thoughts, which is Himself, in material form so that He could have fellowship and gather glory to Himself through the relationship of mutual love and unity we call marriage and family. Unlike Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, natural Israel were unable to receive or express the love of God as they could not transcend the physical world of which they were aware through their natural senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell; and memory, imagination, conscience, reasoning, and affections, with faith in God's Word. Faith is a clear understanding of the revealed Word of God, faith is infallible because God said so, and faith will come to pass.

John 1:3-14, "All things were made by God's spoken Word; and nothing exists that He did not make. In the Logos was eternal Life; and God's own Life gives Light to all mankind. His Life is the Light that shines through the darkness - and the darkness can neither understand and receive or extinguish It."

"God sent John the baptist to witness that Jesus Messiah is the true Light that all might believe through him. John himself was not that Light; he was only to testify its coming, and be a witness to identify it as the true Light when it arrived to shine on everyone coming into the world, whether he be an Israelite or a Gentile. But although He was in the world and the world was made by Him, the world did not recognize Him when He came. He came to His own land and near kinsmen, and His own people received Him not. But to the few who did welcome and receive Him, believing in His Name, He granted authority to become children of God, who were re-born, not of blood nor of sexual passion nor of the will of man, but of the will and Word of God.

"And the Logos was made flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth, and we have seen His glory (Matthew 17:2), the glory as of the only begotten of the Father".

God revealed His will to Adam and Eve with the certain consequences of obedience or disobedience, and placed them on the basis of free moral agency to choose or to refuse. All of Adam's race are on the same basis, their individual decisions determine their destiny as His eternal children, or their loss, are foreknown by the omniscient God.

Brother Branham said, "Israel types the Church" and encouraged us to study the shadows and types in order that we may recognize our day and its Message. To this end let us study Leviticus 26. Here Moses summed up the Law, foretold Israel's apostasy by their rejection of God's new Covenant, their dispersion, their regathering in unbelief, revelation, repentance and Christian conversion.

Besides the promise of the blessing upon the nation and its land consequent upon keeping the covenant, lies the threat of curse upon the nation and land in breach of the Covenant; for the contrast of blessing and curse goes forth from the religious behavior or misbehavior towards the Law of God as a whole, as all particular commands are summed up therein. It must not be overlooked that the subject of Israel's Covenant is always the nation as a whole, not individual Israelites.

Even in the present day men are conscious of the fearful realization of the curse upon the nation of Israel. Upon individuals, however, it falls only in proportion as they receive the fanatical or unbelieving spirit of the community. It would be wrong to suppose that the curse upon Israel would fall upon every individual in the nation. The elect have not fallen under the curse of the apostasy of Israel; history declares that the Gentile Church was grafted upon the stock of the elect - not Jews or Judaism, but upon the unfolding revelation of the Law and the prophets of Israel. And notwithstanding their numerical majority Paul designates the unbelieving portion of the Jews as "some" (Romans 11), in contrast to the Spiritually quickened and vibrant minority whose focus is Jesus Messiah.

The continuing motive for God's rejection of Israel as a nation is its ill-will against Himself, His own Word, and indeed against the Gentiles, in return for which Israel must acknowledge in its history its well deserved visitation in the "seven times" multiplication of judgment.

God's impartial bearing towards Israel was obscured through the idea of a national God, as illustrated in this chapter with its threatenings in foreknowledge of the development of the history of Israel itself (whereas God is no respecter of persons in Adam's race). They have been brought out of Egypt, and Canaan must become their land; but when they apostatize, they must lose Canaan and must be scattered among the heathen. In this not only the impartiality, but the jealousy of Jehovah is made manifest. The idea or key of the whole history and destiny of Israel is: vengeance of the covenant. The people could fall so low because they stood so high, because they were the favorite of God, Jeshurun 'the upright one' (Leviticus 26:13; Deuteronomy 32:15), which is why the promise of their restoration is bound up with the prophecy of their curse as Paul expounds in Romans 11.

God had abandoned His Temple in Jerusalem before He sent Nebuchadnezzar to destroy that House (Ezekiel 10:18-19). The Ark of shittim wood overlain with gold which bore God's Covenant engraved upon stone symbolized the living Body Word which bears the new Covenant, and was never returned to the temple after Zerubbabel's reconstruction. However it returned to Herod's temple with the faculty of speech, casting out the ancient Banksters supposing to serve Jehovah and "Jews as a group" for personal gain. It departed before God sent General Titus to destroy the temple, declaring, "Your house is left to you forsaken and desolate of God's Spirit (for It was in itself God's House and His Temple - John 2:19-21). For I certify you shall not see Me (personal pronoun) henceforth, until you say, Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord" (Matthew 23:38-39).

Messiah was God manifest in flesh as Isaiah 9 foretold: "The Lord will cut off from Israel Head and tail, Branch and rush, in one day. The Ancient and Honorable, He is the Head; and the prophet that teaches lies, he is the tail. The leaders of 'Jews as a group' are the "tail" that causes them to err; and those who are led by self-styled leaders, stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, are destroyed." 144,000 elect Israelites will praise "He who comes in the Name of the Lord" when they recognize Christ's 'parousia' Coming in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week. Revelation 11:19, "The temple of God in heaven was opened and the Ark of His Covenant was seen within His Holy of Holies: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail." The Hebrew saints will not see a wooden box overlain with gold, but what it symbolized; the beginning of God made man: humanity glorified with deity in the person of their rejected Messiah (Revelation 3:14; Zechariah 12:10 - 13:9).

Leviticus 26:14-39 prophesies the consequences of disobedience. The severity of Israel's national punishments if they disobeyed would be the extent of their national criminality and in proportion to the great and manifold privileges bestowed upon them.

These judgments are threatened not for single breaches of the Law, but for contempt for all the laws, amounting to an inward contempt of the Divine commandments and a breach of the covenant (Leviticus 26:14-15) - for presumptuous and obstinate rebellion, therefore, against God and His Word.

The antitype today is Christ's divorcement of those in the adulterous world church system (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 18:1-4). The breach between the end of Christ's Mediation in 1963 at the close of the Church Ages and the revelation of the Seven Seals is illustrated in this diagram that signifies the Body of Christ of all Ages.

When Laodicea ended no one could come to the Lord since the Book was sealed and Christ was no longer mediating for ignorance (I Corinthians 13:10). Brother Branham called this period "the Breach between the Church Ages and the Seals." It is found in Revelation 4 and 5, and expounded in Newsletters #290, #291, #292, #293, and #294. The breach is represented by the chasm between the Laodicean Church Age and the Capstone which signifies "that which is perfect" manifest in Christ's end-time Bride. Brother Branham stood in this gap and received the revelation of the Seven Seals which He revealed under inspiration of the Spirit to enable us to cross into the Capstone.

As the objective of God's chastisement is always grace and mercy, allowing a time for repentance, we Gentiles have been granted "silence in heaven about the space of half an hour" before Israel's Seventh Trumpet sounds the end of the Gentile dispensation. But no punishment is so severe that greater wrath cannot be imposed upon the impenitent. The apostate once Christian nations should heed the account of Lazarus and the rich man recorded in Luke 16:19-31, because without a Mediator the only way across the breach back to God today is by the Message of William Branham (Malachi 4:6; Acts 3:23; Revelation 22:18-19). That Message the nations have refused is Christ the fullness of the anointed Word, and does not require mediation. Hebrews 6:5-6, "Knowing how good the Word of God is, and having tasted the powers of the world to come but then turned against God, they cannot bring themselves to repent again if they have crucified to themselves the Son of God afresh by rejecting and holding Him up to mockery and public shame".

Within "the times of the Gentiles," Israel's apostasy became so reprehensible and God's chastisement commensurate, even after He dispersed the Northern Kingdom, had Jerusalem sacked, the temple razed and her people taken captive, their high priest in obdurate persistence slew God's only begotten Son in behalf of all Israel. Their sole mediator having murdered his Successor severed the national communion with Jehovah and created a breach that is impassable until the nation fulfils the sixfold purpose of Gabriel's visit to Daniel. From the day of Pentecost until the last saint predestinated to Laodicea was born again, Messiah interceded between Jehovah and elect individuals in Adam's race receiving the Word for their day and excusing their ignorance of the fullness of the mysterious Sealed Book. This grace cannot be applied to Israel as a nation, which did not "prove all things" in God's written Word (Isaiah 8:20) but allowed corrupt leaders to blind them spiritually so that they "cut off" Messiah thinking they were doing God a service (Daniel 9:26). Israel's national blindness will continue until the Gentile dispensation is fulfilled. Their blind leaders of the blind have also deceived "Jews as a group," causing them to miss their time of redemption, which is today, as they are in the main non-Semitic Gentiles.

The Hebrew word for Gentile is Goi, meaning multitudes of men or beasts, "the nations," as distinct from Israel (Nehemiah 5:8). With all the superiority of the Gentile world kingdoms, in military prowess, commerce, luxury and the fine arts, ancient Israel stood on an immense moral elevation in nearness to God and possession of His revealed Word (Exodus 19:5-6; Psalm 147:19-20; 148:14; Romans 3:1-2). But this superiority was in order that Israel, as priests unto God, might be mediator of blessings unto all nations (Isaiah 61:6). His covenant with Abraham contemplated that "in his seed all the nations of the earth should be blessed" (Genesis 12:3). The Hebrews in national pride failed to see this, and despised the Gentiles, but in rejecting Messiah were themselves "broken off" from the cultivated olive that we Gentiles might be "grafted in" (Romans 9:11-35). "The times of the Gentiles" answer to Israel's seven times punishment (Leviticus 26:18, 21, 24). They began with Judah's depression and captivity under Nebuchadnezzar, to whom God delegated the world empire (Jeremiah 27:6-7), hence Jeremiah's counsel to the Jews to submit to Him was true patriotism, not cowardice. Ever since, Jerusalem has been "trodden down of the Gentiles," and shall be "until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled" with the consummation of all life (Luke 21:24; Malachi 4:1-3). Meanwhile, "All Israel shall be saved," and martyred. "The receiving of them shall be life from the dead" in the first resurrection for the Millennium where the theocracy will be restored with unparalleled splendor at the coming of Him "whose right it is" (Daniel 12:1; Ezekiel 21:27; Acts 1:6; Romans 11:15; Revelation 11:2-15).

Leviticus 26:40-45 looks forward to the gracious promise of divine forgiveness and favor on Israel's repentance in memory of the covenant made with their fathers (Romans 2:1-29) in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week subsequent to their regathering to their land wherein they will salute the Cross (Isaiah 11:11-13).

First the 144,000 elect Israelites must acknowledge their own sin and the sin of their forefathers (Daniel 9:24; Zechariah 12). The cause of their chastisement is that they have lived contrary to God. He found them with uncircumcised hearts as He declared through Stephen (Acts 7:51) so He has removed them from the land. The greatest reproach to a true Israelite is to be expelled from his own land, which is tantamount to removing him from the Covenant. They must own the justice of their punishment, blessing God that His objective was correction in love leading to repentance and rejoicing in view of this higher objective (II Corinthians 7:10; Hebrews 12:11).

Leviticus 26:43-45, "they shall accept the punishment for their iniquity because they despised My judgments and their souls abhorred My statutes. And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not spurn them, neither will I abhor them so as to destroy them utterly and break My covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God. For their sakes I will remember My covenant with their forefathers, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am the Lord".

These verses speak not of the return from Babylon, but of Israel's approaching pardon and restoration after the close of the Gentile dispensation, which commenced on the day of Pentecost and ends at their Seventh Trump. Or as Isaiah 11:11 has it, their gathering again as the gathering from Egypt (for in these last days Jerusalem is as Sodom and Egypt spiritually speaking - Revelation 11:8). Moses was speaking of the new Covenant, prophesied in greater detail in Jeremiah 31:31-34:

"Behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will make a new Covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: not according to the Covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; My Covenant which they broke, although I was their Husband, says the Lord. But this is the Covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, I will put My Law in their inward parts, and upon their hearts will I write it; and will be their God, and they shall be My people. And no longer shall each man teach his neighbour, and each his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more".

Moses and Jeremiah were speaking of Spiritual Israel, not Israel of the flesh but the elect of God. Romans 9:6, "Not as though the Word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel".

The new Covenant prophesied by Moses and Jeremiah was confirmed to Israel over three and a half years by the ministry of John the baptist and Jesus Messiah. Natural Israel rejected Messiah and the new Covenant Daniel 9:26, "And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be slain: not for Himself but as kinsman Redeemer for Adam's fallen race. . ." This is the Covenant we have received as Christ's Church, as Paul explains in Hebrews 8:10-12 and 10:14-18: "By one offering He has perfected for ever those who are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after saying, 'This is the Covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put My Laws into their hearts, and write them on their minds;' He adds, 'And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.' Now where there is remission of sins, there is no more offering for sin".

The Covenant God promised natural Israel and which they refused, is our Covenant! If you are in that Covenant, you are an Israelite as Paul explained in Romans 2:28-29: "One is not a Judahite from his outward appearance; nor is circumcision external and physical: but he is a Judean who is one inwardly; and true circumcision is a matter of the heart, by Spiritual revelation, and not a mere literal observance of the letter. His praise is not from men, but from God." A true Judahite is born of the Man, Jesus Messiah, and his mother is not a Jewess but Jerusalem which is above and is free from the curse of the Law (Galatians 4:25). Your Life is that of the Logos received by the hearing of faith, not by sex. Contrary to the self-styled Jews, the birthright comes from the man, not from the woman. She cannot "beget" a child. "The life is in the blood," father's semen is made from the constituents of his blood so the baby has not one speck of its mother's blood. Woman is not original creation and not in the image of God (I Corinthians 11:7-8). Only one who is in Cain's lineage would claim a matriarchal lineage and trace his lineage back to Eve to pretend he is of Adam's race. This is confirmed in Matthew 23:33-35 and John 8:33-44 where Esau's children declared "We are Abraham's seed," but they were not sons of Isaac and Jacob, neither in God's Covenant with Israel nor even in Adam's race since they were spawned from the sons of Esau's Serpent's seed wives, and Jesus said, "You are of your father the Devil".

Christians truly are God's Chosen People to the exclusion of all else; the continued faithfulness of God to His people according to the promises of Jeremiah and Hebrews pertains to the household of faith, the chosen nation and royal priesthood of Christ's Bride of all Ages (I Peter 2:4-10). Jesus Christ is the beginning of God creating Himself part creation in order that He might declare His nature and character to men (John 1:18; 3:13; 17:6, 26). The true Church is the continuation of the same creation.

There is a remnant of natural Israel who will yet enter into the new Covenant promised by Leviticus 26:40-45 and Jeremiah 31:31-34, but since they miss the Marriage of the Lamb, they will not be His wife but her servants. Daniel 9:27, "And the Roman prince, will confirm a covenant with the Jews for seven years: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease. . ." During the first half of this week Israel's two prophets endued with the Spirit that anointed Moses and Elijah will reconfirm God's new Covenant. Natural Israel and the Jews will reject it a second time, and once again allied with Rome, they will murder these two witnesses. But after three and a half days the Spirit of God's Life will resurrect them in glorified form, and they will ascend to heaven in the sight of their enemies. Thereafter the whole nation of Israel will be reborn in one day, all 144,000 of them, following which they too will be killed by Rome and the Jews.

The warnings and promises of Leviticus 26 show it was foreseen that much of the Mosaic legislation was likely to be neglected by the people. "There is a marvelous and grand display of the greatness of God in the fact, that He holds out before the people, whom He has just delivered from the hands of the heathen and gathered round Himself, the prospect of being scattered again among the heathen, and that, even before the land is taken by the Israelites, He predicts its return to desolation. These words could only be spoken by One who has the future really before His mind, who sees through the whole depth of sin, and who can destroy His own work, and yet attain His end. But so much the more adorable and marvelous is the grace which nevertheless begins its work among such sinners, and is certain of victory notwithstanding all retarding and opposing influences" (Auberlen).

God gave the Law as chastisement for Israel's unbelief and lack of faith at Kadesh Barnea. Jesus said, "Man shall live by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God." Multitudes who are Christian in name only likewise neglect to observe the ordinances of the Lord: faith is too often learning without revelation; baptism too often sprinkling in three titles instead of immersion in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of Sins, and the Lord's Supper too often His breakfast or His lunch. Few observe foot washing and ordinances regarding dress, hair and sanctification that mark the standard for Christian life and character. But because man fails to meet the requirements of God's Word He does not lower His Law to our level of human weakness and sinfulness, for it is designed to lift man up to Divine holiness and purity, to help and instruct the best of the people, not merely to chastise the worst.

Leviticus 26:46 takes us back to what we were saying with respect to the breach and the necessity for a mediator between God and man in the absence of the fullness of the Word. When Israel dishonored God's Word at Kadesh Barnea by preferring the unbelief of ten faithless spies they rejected Abraham's grace covenant. Every unbeliever over twenty years of age was blotted from the Book of Life, and there was a breach of association. God called it "divorce," for His relationship with Israel was that of Husband as we read in Jeremiah 31.

Immediately God marched the nation to Mount Sinai where He placed them under a secondary Covenant of Law, whose purpose was to train a people of no faith to compliance by the blessings for obedience and the curses for disobedience. Verse 46 repeats the fact that this secondary Covenant of Law was given "by the hand of Moses," showing the necessity of a mediator between man and God because of the disunity between Israel and their God owing to the unfaithfulness of the nation which ruptured the marriage relationship.

Paul explains this in Galatians 3:19-25, "The Law was added because of transgressions, to show sins in their true light, until the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not a mediator of only one party, but God is one. (In other Words, His will is sovereign, and when Israel disbelieved His Word at Kadesh, they were no longer one with Him as a wife and husband are one, but two. Jesus prayed that we would be in one mind with He and the Father as Abraham was when God made His covenant with him so that we would not require a go-between - John 17:21-26). Is the Law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a Law given which could have given eternal Life, then righteousness would indeed have been by the Law. But the Scripture has all men imprisoned under sin, so that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. Before faith came, we were confined under the Law, kept under restraint until faith should be revealed, so that the Law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith. But with the coming of faith we are no longer under a custodian, for through our faith in Christ Jesus we are all Sons of God. For as many of you as are baptized into Christ (by the Spirit), have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise".

Here you will discern an allusion to the custom at oriental weddings where the host gave each guest an identical garment so that there was no distinction between rich or poor, prince or peasant. Our wedding garment is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, so that whatever our gender, socio-economic station or nation in Adam's race we share equal eternal Life (Matthew 22:1-14; I Corinthians 12:12).

In their overweening pride, Israel and the Jews have overlooked the teaching of Leviticus 26, which warns that no man is able to keep God's commandments so as to claim eternal Life based on his own merit (II Timothy 2:5). Yet God looks with favour and will bless and reward those who endeavor to do His will, depending upon His grace. In His office as mediator, Moses stood in the breach for Israel typing Christ during the Church Ages of PART-Word when the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals. Likewise Brother Branham stood in the breach after Christ's Mediatorial office was fulfilled and before the fullness of the Word had been delivered (I Corinthians 13:10). The Elijah of this day introduced Christ's 'parousia,' that He might beget a WORD Bride, a Capstone Bride under preeminence and glorify the Father's Name again. nl477.htm

1.5 Million Italians in Massive Rome Protest against Homosexual Civil UnionsROME, May 14, 2007 – Italians from across the country poured into Rome May 12 to join in a demonstration against a law that would give legal recognition to homosexual couples – reports showed up to 1.7 million people overflowed the St. John Lateran piazza. Organizers initially expected to draw about 100,000.

The proposed legislation would give homosexual couples – and unmarried heterosexual couples – similar rights to those of married couples, stopping just short of legalizing homosexual marriage.

"Living together is not family," protester Anna Manara told the Associated Press. "A commitment such as marriage cements the bond, while other models make it easier to be together and therefore end up making it less valuable."

While the pro-family demonstration was backed by the Vatican and Italy's Catholic bishops, it was organized by lay people independently of the Church. This "mind-blowing" success of the event is an outstanding example of the power held by ordinary citizens when sufficiently mobilized in support of traditional values. . . Full story: lifesite.net

Comment: Such public action illustrates how "with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish" the alien- controlled media "send strong delusion that" amoral politicians and agnostics without the Absolute of God's Word "should believe the lie that they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness".

Starving the PoorMay 18, 2007 – In part the price-hike threat to the food staple for Mexican workers and the poor is what we might call the ethanol effect — a consequence of the US stampede to corn-based ethanol as an energy substitute for oil, whose major wellsprings, of course, are in regions that even more grievously defy international order. [Read totalitarian one world government - Ed]. In the United States, too, the ethanol effect has raised food prices over a broad range. . .

The connection between instability in the Middle East and the cost of feeding a family in the Americas isn’t direct, of course. But as with all international trade, power tilts the balance. A leading goal of US foreign policy has long been to create a global order in which US corporations have free access to markets, resources and investment opportunities. The objective is commonly called "free trade," a posture that collapses quickly on examination. . . Increasingly, bio fuels are likely to "starve the poor" around the world, according to Runge and Senauer, as staples are converted to ethanol production for the privileged. . .

Comment: The world has been deceived by quack science. Planets such as Uranus, Jupiter, and a few moons in our solar system have atmospheres - with Methane - but no animal or vegetable life. Oil is abionic, can occur anywhere, and is continually being generated. The new biofuel industry is a cover for slavery and depopulation. Any oil shortfall is man-made with the objective of increasing the price of "black gold," and the power and profitability of the corporations that control this resource. Without too much tinkering you car can be made to run on water . . . but of course that, too, is being monopolized and commodified.

Google's relationships with government officials in all of the dozens of countries where they operate are a mystery, because Google never makes any statements about this.

Russian Breakthrough in EM Weapons & Radio TelescopesMoscow, May 15, 2007 – A group of Russian scientists. . . have developed a series of unique compact generators capable of producing high-energy pulses of hundreds and even thousands of megawatts.

This compares with the capacity of a major Soviet hydropower station on the Dnieper or an energy unit at a modern nuclear power plant. The new generators are sources of electromagnetic radiation rather than electricity. Their main feature is a capacity to produce enormous power in a matter of nanoseconds. The impulses can be generated with a very high frequency. . . They surpass foreign counterparts by 10 times. Depending on what facilities the EMP is directed at, the damage radius can be from several hundred meters to kilometers. Without creating a shock wave and inflicting visible damage, it destroys all enemy electronic equipment. . . electromagnetic weapons are capable of damaging radio electronic components even if they are switched off ... In several fractions of a second, it can burn down all electronic equipment at an electric power station, substation or control tower. A short intensive pulse can instantly paralyze data bases, financial centers and industrial equipment. Full story: rense.com

The UK Ministry of Defence turned large parts of the country into a giant laboratory to conduct a series of secret germ warfare tests on the public. A government report just released provides for the first time a comprehensive official history of Britain's biological weapons trials between 1940 and 1979.

Many of these tests involved releasing potentially dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms over vast swaths of the population without the public being told. While details of some secret trials have emerged in recent years, the 60-page report reveals new information about more than 100 covert experiments. The report reveals that military personnel were briefed to tell any 'inquisitive inquirer' the trials were part of research projects into weather and air pollution.

Between 1955 and 1963 planes flew from north-east England to the tip of Cornwall along the south and west coasts, dropping huge amounts of zinc/cadmium sulphide on the population. The chemical drifted miles inland, its fluorescence allowing the spread to be monitored. In another trial using zinc/cadmium sulphide, a generator was towed along a road near Frome in Somerset where it spewed the chemical for an hour.

While the Government has insisted the chemical is safe, cadmium is recognised as a cause of lung cancer and during World War II was considered by the Allies as a chemical weapon. See anomalies-unlimited.com.

This British experimentation of yesteryear was a precursor to the practical application of chemtrail graffiti worldwide today, defacing then turning blue skies gray. Please study these URLs thoroughly: imageevent.com youtube.com carnicom.com; display their material on the Parliamentary monitors and distribute copies of our letter to members so they may personally confront their responsibility and accountability.

Clifford Carnicom has been actively involved in bringing attention to the chemtrail phenomenon. His technical background is extensive in the fields of geodetic science, advanced mathematics, computer science and the physical sciences. His website says, "Welcome to the brave new world of toxic barium skies, weather control, mind control and population control through the use of chemtrails modulated with electromagnetic frequencies generated by HAARP. Our health is under attack as evidenced by the skyrocketing rates of chemtrail induced lung cancer, asthma and pulmonary/respiratory problems. Our natural environment and planetary weather systems are under attack resulting in freak lightening strikes, bizarre weather, 20% less sunlight reaching the Earth's surface, the alarming, nearly complete collapse in certain areas of the west coast marine ecosystem and the creation of some of the largest tornadoes and hurricanes on record. Our skies are increasingly hazed over with fake barium/aluminum particulate, ethylene dibromide chemtrail clouds. Whether in the atmosphere or in the Ocean this added particulate matter is a hazard to the health of every living thing on this planet. There is a main-stream media blackout on this subject so the only way to get the word out is by word of mouth".

It is common to see chemtrails being laid overhead in your electorate, and without your assistance gray skies "ain't" gonna clear up. If you'll wipe off the clouds we'll cheer up, take off that gloomy mask of tragedy, and put on a happy face.

Please have Parliament officially inform your constitituents as to:

1. The entity operating the fleet of tanker aircraft laying chemtrails over our electorate (and worldwide). 2. By whose authority they are operating in Australia. 3. The nature of the chemical, mineral and organic material being diffused. 4. The objective of this operation. 5. Why none of this information has been widely reported to the public by government.6. By whose authority has the media not informed the public?

Hebrews 10:1, "The Law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect".

Hence we see in the life and times of Joshua a shadow and type of the life of Jesus Messiah, of Brother Branham and the end-time Bride.

Deuteronomy 31:7, "Moses summoned Joshua, and said in the presence of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for you must go with this people to the land which the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them; and you shall cause them to inherit it".

Joshua carried forward the work already begun by Moses who led the children of Israel "out from" Egypt and succeeded him as ruler under God in the theocratic commonwealth, bringing it to a definite conclusion by leading the nation "in to" the promised land (Deuteronomy 6:23). Until his noble witness after spying out Canaan he was "Hoshea the son of Nun," meaning 'He will save,' after this Jehovah's name was prefixed - 'Jehoshua' - meaning 'Jehovah by him will save' (Numbers 13:8, 16). He was a type of Messiah of whom the Angel of the Lord said, "You shall call His Name JESUS (or 'Joshua'): for He shall save His people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21). Joshua saved natural Israel, leading them to defeat the natural Serpent's seed and possess the enemy's gate, as Jesus saved Spiritual Israel, leading us from the spiritual Serpent's seed of Jewish unbelief in the purity of God's revealed Word.

Joshua was already full of the Spirit when Moses commissioned him before all Israel by the laying on of hands as the Lord commanded, adopting or placing him as vice leader so Israel would obey him preparatory to his becoming chief after Moses' death (Numbers 27:18-23; Deuteronomy 34:9). Whereas the Lord spoke with Moses "face to face," Joshua was neither a lawgiver nor a prophet and was directed to seek the divine will through Eleazar the high priest and his Urim Thummim.

As one of the chief men of Ephraim he was sent to spy out Canaan; Caleb represented Judah; these two alone of the twelve spies brought a good report. At Moses' command Joshua led an army that "discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword" (Exodus 17:8-13). By this exploit Joshua rose in Moses' estimation and accompanied him "into the mount of God" (Exodus 24:13), and was at other times his minister (Exodus 33:11). This intercourse with Moses laid the foundation of his knowledge of God and confidence in Jehovah who had for the first time revealed Himself as such to Moses (Exodus 6:2-3). His confidence in God was gloriously manifested in the victory at Gibeon where for the first time God hearkened to the voice of a man, causing the sun to stand still in heaven (Joshua 10:12-15).

This shows what God's Word would do for a man under preeminence to the Law. It might be called Joshua's 'third pull' and is an earnest of the authority of Christ's end-time Bride during the manifestation of the Sons of God as witnessed in the ministry of Brother Branham, the firstfruit of "we who are Christ's at His 'parousia' Coming" (I Corinthians 15:23). At God's command he twice spoke squirrels into existence, shot and ate them; he spoke life back to a little fish, and an opossum, spoke the salvation of Sister Wright's two son, and spoke a tumor from the womb of his wife.

The Serpent's seed nations of Canaan were to be cut off utterly. In it's bloodiest executions, the Israelite's sword wrought a work of mercy for all of the nations of Adam's race to the very end of the world. To men without the faith they seem of very small importance today, those perpetual contests with the Canaanites, and the Ammonites, and the Philistines, with which the books of Joshua, Judges and Samuel are almost filled. But in these contests and on the fate of one of these nations of Palestine, the destiny of Adam's race depended. The Israelites fought not for themselves alone, but for us; they did God's work; they preserved the lineage which would bear Abraham's seed, Jesus Messiah, through the Virgin, and were the ministers of blessing to all nations, even though their nation rejected the blessing of Abraham.

How did Noah feel when he realized the woman he brought with him in the ark was Serpent's seed, reproduced the seed of the Serpent? And after more than a generation of the teaching rain of Brother Branham's Message, how will those in the circle of this Message who are joined together with the physical Serpent's seed react when they realize that "as it was in the days of Noah," they have missed the rapture?

Joshua learnt to rule by obeying first; then he ruled for God, and not for self. Among the heroes of the sacred history he stands forth almost above all others, as free from self-will. He is distinguished most by his conscientious fidelity towards the Law and an imperturbably theocratic disposition. He is prudent, circumspect, where he has to act of himself, for he conducts the wars of the Lord, but unhesitating, quick, and decided where the Lord sends him. His courage is humility, his strength is faith, his wisdom is obedient fear of the Lord. A gentle but firm disposition is proven by his sternly solemn sentence upon Achan, and the strictness with which he executes the curse upon the Canaanites. Such a union of mildness with strength, of simplicity with prudence, of humility with magnanimity is the fruit of faith, making Joshua and his work a type of Him who was to come. He led the people into the land of promise and workaday rest, but there is yet a better rest to be enjoyed, to which his Antitype and Namesake must introduce us (Hebrews 4:9).

Joshua is mentioned only twice in the New Testament. First, in Stephen's speech before the chief council, where it is said that the fathers brought in the tabernacle with Joshua into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before their face (Acts 7:45). Second, in Hebrews 4 where Paul quotes Psalm 95:7-11 in which David said, "Today, five hundred years after entering into the rest of Canaan, Israel has not yet entered into the rest of God. For if Joshua had brought them this rest, God would not have spoken of another day after this time." The conclusion is "there yet remains rest [sabbatismos] for the elect of God. For he who has entered into God's rest has also ceased from his own works, as God ceased from His." The Greek word 'sabbatismos' in verse 9 is used nowhere else in the New Testament and alludes to the eternal rest of God spoken of in Genesis 2:2, not the Hebrews' sabbath day at week's end, but the eternal sabbath after life's pilgrimage and the toils of our hard week on earth has finished. We enter this eternal sabbath by the baptism with the Holy Spirit, which is the new birth apprehended by a clear revelation of the Word for our day transforming us into living sacrifices, dead to the world but alive to the Word.

Joshua was in name and action a beautiful type of Messiah. As Joshua led the children of Israel through the Jordan into the land of Canaan, Jesus Messiah leads His believing followers finally through death into the eternal land of the Millennium, accomplishing what Moses could not effect. The Law of Moses could ensure neither peace nor blessedness to men, which Jesus and His Good News can (Romans 8:33; Hebrews 7:25). Moses led natural Israel out from Egyptian bondage; Joshua was the warrior who overcame their enemies and distributed to them their land. Jesus is the Captain of our Salvation who led Spiritual Israel from bondage under the Law and "the traditions of men which make the Law of none effect," teaching through Paul, "though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; and having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when our obedience is fulfilled" (II Corinthians 10:3-6).

Throughout the Gentile dispensation Christian warriors have fought the good fight of faith, winning our ground by defeating spiritual Serpent's seed. Brother Branham rightly divided the Word through the revelation of the Seven Seals, distributing the knowledge of our part and position in the Body by placing the individual Church Ages in the context of history so we can recognize our day and its Message.

When Joshua divided the land he gave no possession to the tribe of Levi, "the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance. . . the Lord God of Israel was their inheritance as Moses had said" (Joshua 13:14, 33; Numbers 18:20; Ezekiel 44:28). Levi types Christ's Bride.

The sacrifice we offer is our own life, being dead to the world and alive in Christ we are baptized "with the Holy Ghost and Fire" and separated from the world, not by a sword of steel, but by the Sword of the Word for our day into our position in the Body (Matthew 3:11). Only the elect of God can offer the sacrifices of the Lord, because only the elect have the revelation for their day. With natural procreation the life must pass through the body of the husband to his wife (who are one flesh); in the Spiritual, God's own Life must pass through the Body of Christ to quicken unregenerate elect from death unto Life for we are all one Body (I Corinthians 12:12-20). This was demonstrated when eternal Life passed from Peter, one member of the Body, to three thousand elect Hebrew and proselyte believers on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:41); to the elect Samaritans (Acts 8:14-17), and again to several nationalities of Gentiles in the house of Cornelius (Acts 10:44). Because Jesus had promised Peter the keys of faith to unlock the kingdom, or pass the Life of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Spirit, the ministry of regeneration could not proceed universally until he had turned the key to unfold the revelation of the Word for his day. Thereafter that Life could pass through any other member of the Body to quicken the elect in the Alpha Age.

This was confirmed in the Ephesian Age when Paul encountered certain disciples of John the baptist who believed in Jesus Messiah through yet were not born-again. When Paul explained the faith more perfectly, introducing them to the present truth for their day God's Life passed through the Body by the spoken Word; they were baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and gloriously born-again.

In each Age God's elect are responsible for directing others to the present truth as typed in Deuteronomy 12:13-14, "Take heed to yourself that you do not offer your burnt offerings in just any place you chance upon: but only at the place which the Lord shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you". As Israel was to offer their sacrifice in that part of the land where the blood of the lamb and tabernacle was at that time, and not in any of the camps where it had been in the past, Christian lives must be written epistles of the Word predestinated to this hour, not impersonate the Age of Luther, Wesley, or the Pentecostals.

We must possess the revelation that quickened the saints in previous dispensations but we must understand that it can never again baptize anyone into Christ, for those members of the Body to which it was predestinated are complete. God is building the Temple of a spoken Word Body in which He will live and receive worship throughout eternity. Its foundations or feet have been laid. In vain the denominations try to create additional limbs, as if the image of God were an octopus. "God's Word will not return to Him void but will accomplish the objective for which it was sent" (Isaiah 55:11). As the Word for Laodicea created the tongue and the Word for Philadelphia produced the chest, the Word for this day is creating the capstone or intelligence. Study God's plan; don't try to build the windows and doors where the roof should be or your work will be rejected by the Great Architect.

Denominational sacrifices, like the offerings of Cain and the priests of Baal, are not consumed by the holy Fire of God in this day. Christ charged His end-time Bride to offer sacrifices made by Fire for the people, "I took the little Book out of the Angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter. And I was told, You must prophesy again about many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings" (Revelation 10:10-11). Like Abel's "more excellent offering," the revelation of this open Book is vindicated by the holy Fire of the Lord.

Deuteronomy 10:8-9, ". . . the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister unto Him, and to bless in His Name, to this day. Wherefore Levi has no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, according as the Lord your God promised him".

"To bear the ark of the Lord" is to be under the headship of the Word over your heart, as the Levites who type the elect, being separated from the worldly pursuits of their fellows, bore the Ark of the covenant on staves over their heart where God reigns. II Corinthians 5:18-21, Colossians 1:18-24-29 and I Peter 3:8-15 reveal the Bride is a kingdom of priests who intercede by the Word of the hour to reconcile the elect who slumber or are oblivious to the glorious Light of the present truth (I Peter 2:1; Revelation 1:6; 5:10).

As "the Levites were not numbered among the other tribes" (Numbers 1:47), their antitype, the Gentile Bride, are "as the stars of heaven" that cannot be counted (Genesis 15:5). However the other twelve tribes were numbered under the Old Testament, so under the New Covenant the redeemed Israelites will number 12,000 from each tribe, all 144,000 of whom will be re-born as a nation in one day (Isaiah 66:8).

Revelation 7:9, "After John saw in a vision the sealing of 144,000 elect Israelites he beheld a great multitude that no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands" (signifying victory - Daniel 7:10; Revelation 5:11-13). This was the Gentile Bride of all Ages.

As the tribe of Levi "stood before the Lord to minister unto Him, and to bless in His Name," the members of Christ's Bride "are before the throne of God, and minister to Him day and night in His temple," which Temple we are in union with Christ (Revelation 7:15; 21:22-23).

The inheritance of God's elect is union with the revealed Word for their day and their name on the Lamb's Book of Life. The non-elect of every age judge themselves by their reaction to the Message for the elect of their Age. The possession of Christ's end-time Bride is agreement in the fullness of the revealed Word, our 'third pull' vindicating that we are the Sons of God, will raise us to faith for rapturing grace.

In Numbers 18:26-32 (Deuteronomy 14:28-29; Nehemiah 10:38-39, etc.,) Israel was instructed to tithe of their increase to the Levites because they have no worldly inheritance with them. This types the new heaven and new earth wherein "the kings of the nations of the saved" non-elect will bring the tithe of their increase to the gates of New Jerusalem for the sustenance of Christ, His Bride, and the elect of all ages (Revelation 21:25-26).

In this its secluded position the land of Israel was eminently adapted to the purpose which the people of Israel had to fulfill according to their historical vocation. On the south and east, far-stretching deserts separated Israel from contact with all other nations, on the west was the sea, which in those ancient times was little traversed, while on the north rose the protecting mountain walls of Lebanon. Here might the commonwealth of God develop itself in admirable separateness from the world, the more so as Palestine, in the soil, its climate, its fertility, answered all the conditions which are requisite for the prosperous development of a community, and for awakening love and attachment to the country, the possession of Jehovah, where His dwelling was erected (Joshua 22:19; Leviticus 25:23; Psalm 85:1).

When the Israelites forced their way into this highly favored land where once their fathers had dwelt as nomads, they found the kingdoms of Sihon and Og, east of the Jordan, and in Canaan proper, thirty-one smaller kingdoms besides the free state of Gibeon. All of these nations were physical Serpent's seed; the whole land promised to the Israelites is called "the land of the Hittites" (Genesis 10:15-19; Joshua 1:4).

When Christ's end-time Bride entered the revelation of the Message she found herself in a secluded position, separated from denominational traditions. God likens the separation of the faithful to the seclusion of a desert place (Revelation 12:6). Our understanding of the true oneness of the godhead and Scriptural water baptism clears our way ahead, while Scriptural sanctification smooths our wake astern; to port our revelation of the original sin, and to starboard the revelation of "things that are to be" keep the sea lanes free. The Prophet's Message illumines the present truth of God's Bible as the mariner's pilot book applies current data to his charts. Diligently followed they will bring the pilgrim safely to home port.

One of the first actions of the Israelites upon entering Canaan was to make a treaty with the Gibeonites without first inquiring of the Lord. This is a warning to the Church against the dissimulation of the world, which seeks admission and union with God's kingdom without faith or sanctification when it suits its own carnal advantage. These deceivers were physical Serpent's seed (Joshua 9:7; I Samuel 21:2). They are not on the Book of Life, and Israel was commanded to slay them utterly whenever they were encountered in the land (Genesis 9:24-29; Deuteronomy 7). The Gibeonites occupied land allotted to Benjamin, who in course of time made a league to defend them against the combined tribes of Israel which almost annihilated the Benjaminites. Eventually Israel and Judah hybrid their religion with paganism; God dispersed Israel, and Judah assimilated and intermarried with the physical Serpent's seed as Esau had done.

Benjamin was the last-born of Jacob's sons; the end-time Bride is his antitype, the last-born son of Christ. Right at this time ministers within the circle of this Message are in league with the people of God's curse. Jesus warned how the genuine Spirit falls upon the just and the unjust, causing false anointed ones preaching the letter of Brother Branham's end-time Message "to almost deceive the very elect if it were possible." Their followers will far outnumber Christ's little flock, but because of false teaching they will "never be able to come to the knowledge of the truth" (II Timothy 3:7).

Brother Branham said, "Only the very elect will not be fooled. The temptation will come as follows. The ecumenical move that has started on what seems such a beautiful and blessed principle (fulfilling Christ's prayer that we all might be one) becomes so strong politically that she bears pressure upon the government to cause all to join with her either directly or through adherence to principles enacted into law so that no people will be recognized as actual churches unless under direct or indirect domination of this council. Little groups will lose charters, privileges, etc., until they lose all property and spiritual rights with the people.

(Who is hand-in-glove with Rome? Who is the historical enemy of natural and Spiritual Israel? Who is the architect of "political correctness," of all manner of perversions, "changing times and laws" (Daniel 7:25)? Who are the architects of "hate" legislation? Who encourages confusion of gender, "disobedience to parents; unthankful, unholy attitudes without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinence, savage behavior that despises those who are good? Who encourages men to be traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the revealed Word" - II Timothy 3:1-5; Revelation 18:21-24)!

For example, right now unless the local ministerial association approves in many, if not most cities, one cannot rent a building for religious services. To become chaplains in the armed services, hospitals, etc., it is now almost mandatory to be recognized as acceptable to the trinitarian ecumenical groups. As this pressure increases, and it will, it will be harder to resist, for to resist is to lose privilege. And so many will be tempted to go along, for they will feel it is better to serve God publicly in the framework of this organization than not to serve God at all publicly. But they err. To believe the devil's lie is to serve Satan, even though you may want to call him Jehovah. But the elect will not be deceived.

Furthermore, the elect will not only be kept, but as this move becomes the "IMAGE ERECTED TO THE BEAST," the saints will be gone in the rapture. And this little delightful, winsome movement that started out in fellowship at Ephesus will become the monster of Satan that defiles and deceives the whole world. For the church system of the Roman Catholic and the Protestant in coming together will control the whole wealth of the world system and force the whole earth into its religious trap, or will kill them, by refusing them the privilege of buying and selling whereby they would make a living. This will be accomplished simply, for the harlot's daughters are all but gone back to her. In the meantime, Rome has acquired nearly all the supplies of gold. The Jews have the bonds and all the paper. At the right time, the harlot will destroy the present day money system by calling in all the paper, and demanding gold. With no gold, the system falls. The Jews will be trapped and come into the alliance, and the harlot church will take over the whole world" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 313:2-314:1).

In no Age was the Message spread by money and organization, but faith confirmed by signs and wonders, principally faith, new birth, Scriptural water baptism, new life, word of knowledge, wisdom, and all of those other gifts as you have need.

II Corinthians 6:14-18, "Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? What communion has light with darkness? And what concord has Christ with Belial? or what part has he who believes with an infidel? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty".

We are called to be a separated people, yet leaders within the circle of this Message are yoking nominal believers without the Spirit together with infidels of Serpent seed lineage of the Gibeonites. Malice aforethought lurks behind such iniquity. The Prophet's Message is too plain for this to be coincidence or innocent error. The perpetrators must be reprobate because the mystery of God is finished and the elect of God cannot be deceived on the revealed Word of God.

Brother Branham wrote these words in his Bible: "It has been for some time that this first chapter of Joshua opens to me. This morning of August 7, 1957 I have been sick and nervous and I looked at a vision that was given me. I promise by God's help to be courageous from this day on".

Joshua 1:1-9, "Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, Moses My servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, into the land which I give them. Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given to you, as I said to Moses. Your territory will be from the desert and Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites to the great western sea."

In order to inherit God's promise, we, like Israel, must go to our place in the Word as they went to their place in the world, grasp the mettle, overcome all obstacles in the faith of our Lord God and take possession, because He has promised.

The declaration in Joshua 1:4, that God has assigned to the people of Israel its portion of the earth, is in accordance with Deuteronomy 32:8 and Acts 17:26, in which He separates Israel and marks off to the nations their bounds. This is invoked in God's government of the world, which embraces everything, the least as well as the greatest, so that all accident is excluded. That was the case, with natural Israel, when He actually gave to them the land promised to the fathers, where they might serve the Lord their God in beautiful seclusion. It is the case with Spiritual Israel, when He sent and vindicated the Prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, and anointed our eyes of Spiritual seeing that we might find our place of rest and receive Christ's second Coming. In both cases the previous inhabitants must give way as they are not kin to the first or last Adam and have no part in redemption.

"No man will be able to oppose you all the days of your life: as I was with Moses, so will I be with you: I will not fail you, nor forsake you. Be strong and of a good courage: for you will cause this people to inherit the land, which I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the Law which Moses My servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may be careful to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be dismayed: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go".

Brother Branham's commission was to restore the apostolic faith once delivered by the prophet Paul (Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11). When he was translated beyond the curtain of time and met the Pentecostal saints under the golden altar, He said, I preached exactly what Paul preached, "turning not from it to the right hand or to the left" The saints cried, "We're resting on that." He was also commissioned to "finish the mystery of God," which as we learned in Newsletter #475 is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." As the mystery of the Seven Seals revealed, Christ took His abode in the saints of each of the Gentile dispensations when they received a clear understanding of the Word for their day, making their lives written epistles of that part of His Word.

The Lord told Brother Branham, "If you will be sincere and can get the people to believe, not even cancer will stand before your prayer," and He was faithful who promised. As Christ was the first mature Son of those who slept, Brother Branham was the first mature Son among those who are Christ's at His 'parousia' (I Corinthians 15:23). Like the Prophet, if we are strong and very courageous, every place the soles of our feet tread, shall be given to us. Footprints mean possession. Amalek and the Hittites can no longer hide behind this Message; we are in the harvest time and every plant is bearing fruit of the seed that was planted. Every promise in the Book is ours if we are careful to do according to all that is written in the little Book open in the hand of the Angel. nl476.htm

US Raid on Bank of England connected to ‘Wantagate’May 5, 2007 – On March 30th, 2007 the British financial system was shut down for at least eight hours. "In the course of this operation, the Bank of England's liened gold was diverted and resources valued at $4.8 trillion+ expropriated, according to European banking sources."

"It has transpired that the purpose of the shutdown, which caused massive inconvenience to the general banking public, was not to 'test the new system', but rather to enable cynical criminal operatives at the White House and the US Treasury to consummate a preplanned scamming operation for self-enrichment and geopolitical purposes, in collaboration with the secret globalists." l"The European banking sources inform us that the Bank of England is now effectively bankrupt, as a result of this 'Economic Act of War' perpetrated by the United States against its closest ally."

"The purpose of this operation will have been to tie the hands of the incoming British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, who intends to extract the United Kingdom from the European Union collective and to reassert its sovereign independence. . ." Full story: rumormillnews.com worldreports.org

Living with Satanic Parents Anton LaVey is famous for his founding of the Church of Satan and his satanic rituals, and supposed sacrificing of lives. His son Jess Lavey didn't want to take the place of his father as the head of the church. Instead, he became a Christian and a minister. Mr. Lavey told Gianni that her listeners would cringe when he tells them what his father was like. He says as punishment for not taking his appointed place as the head of the Church of Satan, his father castrated him.

"I never could forget the counsel of 13 very wicked-looking men. When I reached the age 12, my father told me I had to go before them because of my being opposed to what I was to do. . . They warned me of what could happen to me if I did not do as they suggested. George H.W. Bush Senior was one of these men. . ." Reverend Lavey also tells about the Kimball-Cherokee Castle in Sedalia, Colorado, where, he claims "Satanists come together and do unspeakable things. . . To think that Bush and his whole family is a part of this kind of thing is hard for some people to believe. But the Lord warns us all. . .

The whole Bush family is Satanists. . . I have met Bush Jr. once when he came to a ritual at the castle with his father. . . He is a very cold man for Satan. Like a lethal weapon. . . Lavey adds, . . I had been abused physically and mentally by both parents who lived for Satanism". Full story: iafm.org

Anti-US Uproar Sweeps ItalyMay 4, 2007 – The US government has proposed to make Vicenza, Italy, the largest US military site in Europe, but the people of Vicenza, and all of Italy, have sworn it will never happen. . . the Prime Minister of Italy was (temporarily) driven out of power. Meanwhile, just outside Vicenza, large tents now hold newly minted citizen activists keeping a 24-hour-per-day vigil and training hundreds of senior citizens, children, and families every day in how to nonviolently stop bulldozers. The bulldozers they are waiting for are American.

The Italians explained that they have never protested the existing US base in Vicenza, which has been there for 50 years. In fact, there are a number of US military installations in and around Vicenza and throughout Italy, including facilities holding 90 atomic bombs. . . Vicenza is already overrun by American soldiers who drink too much, commit too many crimes, return from Iraq in mental anguish, and – since 9/11 – remain ever more isolated from the Italians. . . Leaders of the opposition movement met with the Minister of Defense who said that Italy was capable of saying No to the United States. But the US ambassador gave Italy a deadline of January 19th to accept the base, and the Prime Minister announced his acceptance of it on a trip abroad on January 16th. . .

Comment: Revelation 13:4, "Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?"

Barry Chamish - The Winograd ReportJudge Winograd supposedly examined at great depth, the Oslo War of July 2006 and reached profound conclusions. Missing from this report was the IDF's own investigation of the kidnapping of Cpl. Gilad Shalit prepared by Col. Giora Eiland, which concluded that the kidnapping was watched on surveillance cameras by IDF officers, that a tank commander was refused the right to intervene to save him and that word of the crime was not made public for another 90 minutes. The implication being that Shalit was permitted to be kidnapped.

Missing from Winograd's report were the very widespread claims that the two soldiers kidnapped by Hizbollah were in Lebanese territory, meaning they were set up to be taken as well. Missing, or at least I couldn't find it, was Olmert's confession that in March of 2006, he ordered the IDF to go to war if any soldier was kidnapped. . . Missing as well from the Winograd report was Chief-of-Staff Dan Halutz's war strategy of fighting badly but just well enough to bring "international forces" to the region to separate the sides.

And now the greatest flaw in the Winograd report; there is no mention of the number two member of the Kadima Party, Shimon Peres. If Olmert falls, Peres becomes the new Prime Minister, which may have been the reason for this war in the first place. . . (From: Barry Chamish).

Let’s Talk about Jews and ElectionsThis is not an anti-Semitic canard, a false accusation, a bigoted remark, or an uninformed opinion. This is an empirical fact. For those out there still in doubt, please read "who rules America."[1] Deconstruct and prove the article wrong if you can, I encourage you to; it will only reinforce the fact in your mind once you realize it’s true. I've been accused of anti-Semitism by many different people for refusing to omit the fact that Jews dominate the media in my writings, some people say I should be blaming Zionists, not Jews, but the fact of the matter is, I don't know whether or not all of the Jewish owners and CEO’s of the major networks are Zionists, but I do know they are ethnic Jews. I've been accused of racism [nee white supremacism] for saying that blacks commit more than 50% of the murders every year in the United States, despite the fact that United States Department of Justice statistics prove the same. In other words, I am accused of anti-Semitism and racism for writing the truth. . . Full story: blogspot.com

Colossians 1:27-28, "The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations is made manifest to His saints, to whom God would make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory".

Jesus Messiah is the virgin-born fleshly manifestation of the Logos or glorious expression of God's eternal thoughts known as the Shekinah, described as "the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord." He is the Son of God's Love as was the Logos before its incarnation, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal Life" (John 3:16). He is "The Sun of Righteousness shining forth eternal Life in His beams" and because He is kinfolk with Adam's race, the remission of our sins and redemption was purchased by His shed Blood.

"Jesus is the very image of the invisible God, (the expression of the fullness of His nature and Attributes, invisible to those without this revelation (John 1:18; I Timothy 6:16); He embodies the fullness of God's eternal thoughts and as the Logos) He precedes material creation. For in the Logos all things were created, in heaven, and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or authorities; all are created by Him, and for Him: and He (the "I Am") is preeminent above all things, and in Him all things subsist" (Colossians 1:14-17).

The Logos or Word was the first cause. Thus Jesus Messiah is "Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. . . By faith we understand that the universe was created by the Word of God, so what we now see was made of what cannot be seen" (Hebrews 11;3). Whatever is not God's Word is impermanent and can have no continuing existence. As Brother Branham explained in his sermons, "The World is Falling Apart" because men refuse to hear the voice of the Lord (Hebrews 12:25). God's whole creation, including man, was formed from nought but His Word spoken in faith and must disintegrate when that is rejected. As we were made by His Word we must identify with Him in oneness of faith.

Jesus echoes the mind of God. John 1:18; 5:19; 8:26, "The Son can do nothing of Himself, but what the Father reveals in a vision the Son does likewise. . . and I speak what I have heard from Him." Jesus said, "I and My Father are one," or in agreement, because He had the mind of God. And if "this mind of God is in you, as it was in Christ Jesus, Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God," you will have the 'third pull,' as your word is coequal with the Father (John 17:21). If you are born-again, God is your Father and Jesus is your Brother; you are joint-heirs coequal in eternal Life (Galatians 3:27-29).

Before the Fall, Satan was God's right hand man - he was almost coequal except for being a creator. But he was a creation overcome by the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. His intellectual understanding without faith perverted God's Word and his lie added the one word Eve took as an excuse to break the commandment of God upon which immortality subsists and to satisfy her own lusts.

Until the Fall, man and woman were coequal in nature, with free moral agency to do as they chose, certain of reward or punishment depending upon their decisions. After the Fall, woman was no longer on the basis of free moral agency. Death had entered and a new covenant was made (foreshadowing Israel's Law) wherein man is to be her ruler (Genesis 3:16; Ephesians 5:22-24; I Peter 3:6). God made a covenant with the Israel through Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; but when ten of the twelve spies disbelieved His promise (Numbers 13-14) He marched the nation to mount Sinai, and from grace to the curse of the Law of sin and death that will rule Israel unto the midst of Daniel's Seventieth week. Jesus said, "Your fathers ate natural manna from heaven in the wilderness, and are dead" (John 6:49), meaning that their names were removed from the Book of Life, and they are lost (Psalm 95:10-11; Hebrews 6:4-8; Jude 5).

God told Hosea to marry a woman who has been unfaithful as He has married unfaithful Israel, and to commit himself to her as He is committed to Israel. As Israel rebelled from His Law to Pharisaism, woman has defied God's plan over the past century and the church has forsaken Headship under the Word for headship of the world. She now rules over him in the home, in the workplace, in politics and in ministry: he had better mind his step because the law is on her side. Woman is not original creation but a byproduct made from a rib taken out of the first Adam when God put him to sleep. Because she is not the Word she can deceive and be deceived, which is why she must obey her husband in everything. The Church, which is feminine in designation, is a byproduct made of the Holy Spirit taken from the side of the last Adam when God put Him to sleep. She cannot be deceived on the revealed Word of God because she remains under the Headship of Christ. The natural types the spiritual. Soon the world will be ruled by a woman: the Roman Catholic church, which has rejected the authority of the Man she calls her Husband as described in Revelation 17-18. Like the last Church Age, she is materially "rich, and increased with goods, and has need of nothing; but spiritually she is wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked, and knows it not" (Revelation 3:17).

The world is bound under the spirit of Laodicea which ended in apostasy in 1963. Only the death of our old husband, the Law of sin and death, can release us from bondage, to the spirit of Laodicea and enable us to marry our new Husband, Christ the Word (Romans 7).The Law had to be dead to the early Church in order that they could be reborn or married to Christ, the living Word, so "that which was in part (- our old husband of denominational PART-Word -) is done away," and must be dead to us before we can be can be reunited with our Attribute in God's thinking. In every dispensation the saints recognized their day and became written epistles of its Message. Luther's Message of justification by grace through faith regenerated the saints of the Sardis Church Age but would scarce produce a foolish virgin in the Philadelphian Church Age. The further Light of John Wesley's Message added sanctification by the Blood to Luther's revelation to conceive saints in Philadelphia, and William Branham's Message of Hebrews 13:8 delivered the saints in Laodicea - not speaking in unknown tongues. When the last saint predestinated to Laodicea was baptized into the Body, the revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in WORD form. "That which is perfect" or complete is Christ, the fullness of the anointed WORD, not Jesus the glorified Man (I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7). Jesus told us not to look for a man; the glorified Man will not set foot on earth until after the consummation of all life (Matthew 24:22-28; Malachi 4:1-3).

Jesus said, "Yet a little while, and the world will see Me no more; but you see Me: because I live, you shall live also. At that day (in which you are born-again and possess eternal Life) you will have the revelation that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you" (John 14:19-20). This revelation that "Christ is in you, is the hope of glory" which enables you to see or understand so that the unseen God becomes visible in your life.

Colossians 1:18 states emphatically "He" is Head of the mystic Body of His Church, which is formed and maintained by His spoken Word like material creation. In verse 15 He was firstborn of all creation since He is the Logos or expression of primal cause. In verse 18 He is described as "the beginning" of a new series. The dead who were revived in the Old Testament, such as the widow's son (I Kings 17:17-24), and Lazarus (John 11:1-44), were not "the firstborn from among the dead" since they died again. Christ died and was the first separated out from the dead to begin a glorified new race of God- men. He is Head of this glorified Body, which is His Church, that has preeminence over the glorified Old Testament saints. We were in Him as His Wife when He died on Calvary as Eve was in Adam when God put Him to sleep, we were resurrected in Him, and are now seated in Christ in heavenly places. As "joint heirs" we share His preeminence over the Old Testament saints, and over the 144,000 who either die before or receive the faith after the marriage (Romans 8:17; Ephesians 1:21-23; Revelation 3:14).

The Son of God's love has preeminence since He is the author of eternal Life for the elect and for the world, for He is the Logos manifest, in whom all fullness dwells. God had a threefold purpose: first, to reveal His fullness in Jesus Christ; second, to receive preeminence in His Body of believers, that is, Christ's Bride, that He might live in His people; and third, to restore the Kingdom to its rightful position before the Fall.

Before creation Elohim was the self-existent Holy Spirit alone with His thoughts. His thoughts are the Attributes of what He is (Proverbs 23:7) and will be expressed to His glory in their designated, decreed season and time because they are eternal and they are real. As Brother Branham explained, "that Life could not, and would not, be shared in any other way than through the way of "God manifest in the flesh." This was a part of His eternal and predestinated purpose. This plan was to be to the praise of the glory of His grace. It was the plan of Redemption. It was the plan of Salvation. Now listen closely. "God being a Saviour, it was necessary that He predestinate a man who would require salvation in order to give Himself reason and purpose of being." That is one hundred percent correct and multitudes of Scriptures bear it out as does the very pointed verse of Romans 11:36, "For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things: to Whom be glory for ever. Amen" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 103).

Brother Branham said, "The first thing He made was angelic beings, and they worshipped Him; they could not fall. When He put man in flesh he fell by free moral agency, given the right to choose right and wrong" (God's Provided Way of Fellowship, #60-0709).

"He exactly wasn't God at that time, because God is an object of worship, and there was nothing to worship Him. So in His great mind He wanted these attributes to be expressed. And in Him was love; in Him was to be Father; in Him was to be Son; in Him was to be a Saviour; in Him was to be a Healer. And all these great attributes that we see already expressed, they were in God."

"So my opinion, the first thing that He made was Angels. And then they worshipped Him and that made Him God. And He started from there. . . And now, then when Angels began to worship Him, that was before there was even a molecule in the earth; there was nothing. It was all darkness; there was no sun, or no moon, no stars, no nothing; then He was God. As He asked Job, "Where was you when I laid the foundations of the world? (See?) when the morning stars sang together, the sons of God shouted for joy?" See? Now. . . "Where were you?" See? That was way back before the earth."

". . . And that is. . . the hidden mystery of God that He had in His mind before the world ever began. . . God's great mystery of how. . . It's a secret. He kept it a secret. Nobody knowed nothing about it; even the Angels didn't understand it. See? He didn't reveal it. That's the reason under our seventh mystery, when the Seventh Seal was opened, there was silence" (Matthew 24:36; Christ is the Mystery of God Revealed, p.15:102-104).

The angels were God's foreknowledge of Adam and His descendants. Genesis 1:27, "God created (Heb. 'bara' - out of nothing but faith) man in His own image, (spirit: His thoughts not yet expressed as Word) in the image of God created He him; male and female created He (all of) them." These were not Cain and his descendants who are not a part of God's creation since they are not God's spoken Word but a hybrid of His Word. Unlike Adam and his offspring they are not part of His Spirit and have no part in eternal Life (John 6:63), but like the Bible-denying "Apostles' Creed" (so-called) they are a perversion of His Word, and death.

These angels are the theophanies of Adam and Eve and their offspring, you and I, foreknown of God from the foundation of the world. There is not a child or aged person among them, for He sees our glorified appearance. "Jerusalem that is above is free (from the Law of sin and death), and she is our mother" (Galatians 4:26). The mind is the womb of the spirit and God's mind is the womb of the Holy Spirit and mother of us all, which is Jerusalem that is above that will one day come down from God out of heaven manifest as a Bride adorned for her Husband and settle on Mount Zion that rises 1,500 miles above a renewed Earth unto the renewed heavens (Revelation 21:1-3).

God saw our theophanies worshipping Him. How? Singing Hallelujahs? On bended knee? Singing hymns? None of that! He saw us expressing His Attributes as written epistles of His Word with the Token on display.

Later on, "God said, Let us (the Attributes in the Logos) make (Heb. 'asah' - fashion from existing material) man in our image, after our likeness (as amateur gods): and let them have dominion. . ." Then on the seventh day as Jehovah, "the Lord God formed (Heb. 'yatsar' - squeezed into shape or molded) man out of the dust of the earth. . ." and years after creation was finished He "made (Heb. 'banah' - built) a woman and brought her to the man" (Genesis 2:4-22).

His creation was living in peace and harmony - everything was in perfect order. All of His creatures were manifestations of His spoken Word He called "very good." There could be no sin, no sickness, no death, no pain or sorrow. Secondarily He 'built' woman as a byproduct from Adam's flesh and bone, separated the feminine nature from his mortal spirit and placed it in Eve (Malachi 2:15).

Before the foundation of the world God knew she would fall, but unless mankind fell and required redemption how could He express Himself as Saviour? How would He display His Attributes as a God of judgment and mercy? And unless there was sickness, how would He display His Attributes as Healer? He would be unjust to arbitrarily cause His creation to fall, so He made the byproduct coequal in free moral agency with her husband who instructed her not to partake of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, a metaphor for Lucifer, or they would die, but to fellowship with Christ, the Tree of Life, and live forever. Lucifer knew he could not deceive Adam and cause the Fall, because Adam was the Word made flesh, but Eve was not the Word and was made so she could deceive and be deceived.

The Church is the last Adam's Eve taken from His side on Calvary. She will be tested by Satan but she will not be deceived on the revealed Word. She will stand alone on the Word in the face of creeds, denominations and worldly pressures. In each dispensation she has manifest the Life of the Word predestinated for her day. Jesus promised He would bless us in the Word for our day (John 15:7), outside of which our covenant is void, as Israel's covenant is without effect to every Israelite living outside Palestine (Numbers 23:9).

Ephesians 1:3-9, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: (the believer's position in the Word for his day) even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless in His Presence. In love He predestinated us to be His Sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will, To the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in union with the beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins to the measure of the riches of His grace which He lavished upon us, making known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of His will, according to His purpose which He set forth in Christ".

This speaks of election: of the millions who left Egypt with Moses, only two of the adults entered Canaan land. Messiah sent forth eighty two men, seventy could not receive the revelation, another betrayed Him. In the days of Noah one man was translated, Enoch, a type of Christ's end-time Bride; eight souls were saved by water, three of whom were lost spiritually, a type of the coming tribulation. The elect are a tiny group, about one in a million professed believers in the Message for their day.

The reason there are so many divisions within the circle of this Message is because ministers are not in the faith, hence their congregations cannot be born-again as Christ is no longer a Mediator for ignorance of the Word, so it is unlikely that one who is adding to or taking from the fullness of the Word in this day, or believing hybrid teaching, is born-again. But if he is born-again, the Lord will lead him to some one or some circumstance whereby he will encounter truth and receive correction, without which He cannot come under preeminence to the Logos. And unless our lives are written epistles of the Word for our day we are not called.

If you are not predestinated you will never receive the faith. However, predestination is not arbitrary and is no more than God's foreknowledge of how you will exercise your free moral agency when you encounter His revealed Word. God cannot have the preeminence if we contaminate His revealed Word with human reasoning. The 'third pull' will not work with a hybrid or even a second-hand religion of the rhema without the Logos. Be prayerful, keep yourself sanctified, prove all things and press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ. Never be overcome by discouragement: "lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;" take heart, for the prize is to the overcomer.

Jesus prayed in Gethsemane that the Body would be under preeminence to the Head. The Body must follow its Head as a Christian wife follows her husband. Had Eve followed her husband, the whole Kingdom would have come forth when Christ resurrected. Adam was not deceived but the woman being deceived, was in the transgression, he voluntarily crossed the time line and the Life line to redeem his wife. The last Adam also died to redeem His wife, which is His Body. He could not fully redeem the Church Age saints on Calvary, because so long as the Book was sealed they had only PART-Word and their faith was not perfect. He had to intercede for their ignorance until the last saint predestinated to the Laodicean part of the Body was redeemed. Until then redemption was ongoing, but since the last saint predestinated to Laodicea was baptized into Christ in March, 1963, redemption is over. Christ's end-time Bride and 144,000 elect Israelites were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary. As we are ordained to receive the fullness of the Word through the Messages of three mighty prophets and have no need for a mediator.

When Jesus "beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven" (Luke 10:18), He was referring to God's foreknowledge wherein He was crucified from the foundation of the earth to redeem "whomsoever will believe" of Adam's race (Revelation 13:8). God foresaw the whole kingdom of darkness follow its head, however Lucifer's actual separation from grace did not take place until he incarnate and inspired the Serpent to deceive and seduce Eve (Genesis 3:1-6; James 1:14-15). Satan's angels fell as individuals when they came to that place of no more repentance in their earthly sojourn and their name was blotted from the Book of Life. Cain and his lineage is an exception: they were never on the Book of Life, and without a kinsman redeemer they are born lost. Take care whom you marry because intermarriage between the original seed of God and the human byproduct is genocide to Adam's race today "as it was in the days of Noah" (Genesis 6:1-4; Matthew 24:37).

God promised He would gather His heaven-born Gentiles and elect Israelites saying, "I will restore" (Joel 2:25; Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11; Acts 1:6-8; 3:21; Revelation 10:7). His adversary and ours is restoring his own kingdom, "mystery Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth." Nebuchadnezzar's conquest of Judea initiated "The times of the Gentiles," whose dominion over Judea will continue unto the consummation of life on earth. These began with the forced worship of the vindicated prophet Daniel (3) and will end with enforced worship of the false prophet (Isaiah 14:13-14; II Thessalonians 2:3-4; Revelation 13:8). The doom of its head of gold was sealed by a Message written in unknown tongues interpreted by a true prophet; a plethora of uninterpreted messages spoken in unknown tongues signals the doom of its feet of iron mixed with clay. Its head of gold established a united kingdom of splendor and culture; its feet of iron mixed with clay will "devour the whole earth, tread it down, and break it in pieces. . . but the judgment shall sit, and the saints of the Most High shall take away his dominion, to consume it gradually and destroy it suddenly in the end" (Daniel 7:23, 26).

Fallen angels are reviving spiritual Babylon: sons of Cain, Edomite impersonators (Isaiah 34:1-8; 63), reprobate sons of Adam, ministers who refused to keep on walking in the Light of further revelation as God declared it to His people, and fell for intellectual reasoning and the educated guesses of organization (Matthew 24:24, 29; II Timothy 3:8; Revelation 6:13). Fallen angels of the Lutheran, Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal and other moves of God that kept not their first estate in the Word, but seduced by Lucifer's wisdom, formed denominations which exalt themselves above the Word like Lucifer who tells modern Eve, "We have great missionary works; hospitals, retirement villages, schools, universities and many mighty works. Surely God won't cast us into the tribulation".

Had Eve waited for God to reveal the secret of procreation to her husband, she would have been the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ and "the beginning of the creation of God" would have been in the garden of Eden. Had the Lutherans waited upon God to reveal the next line and precept in the reformation of the Roman Catholic system of worship instead of organizing, their offspring would have been Methodists. Likewise, had the Methodists waited upon the Lord to unfold more of Himself instead or organizing, their children would have received the greater Light of the Pentecostals. And had the Pentecostals waited for this end-time Message which is their Head, they would have attained to "the unity of the faith and that understanding of the Son of God that leads to maturity unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ, so that they should be no longer children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait with cleverly devised lies made to sound like truth; but speaking the truth in love, grow up in all things into Him who is the Head" (Ephesians 4:13-16).

Holy Mother Church and her daughters, linked in sordid wedlock to governments and thrones, number among their servants a host of the worldly and the proud, whose service to God is but the service of themselves; and many, too, who, in the sophistry of the human heart, imagine themselves true soldiers of Heaven, while earthly pride, interest, and passion are the life-springs of their zeal. This mighty church of Satan, in her imposing march along the high road of history, heralded as infallible and divine, astounds the gazing world with prodigies of contradiction: now the protector of the oppressed, now the right arm of tyrants; now breathing charity and love, now dark with the passions of Hell; now beaming with celestial truth, now masked in hypocrisy and lies; now a virgin; now a harlot; an imperial queen, and a tinseled actress. Clearly, she is of earth, not of heaven; and her transcendently dramatic life is a type of the good and ill, the baseness and nobleness, the foulness and purity, the love and hate, the pride, passion, truth, falsehood, fierceness, and tenderness, that battle in the restless heart of unregenerate men.

The Son of God's Love shines upon the evil and on the good, to lighten the way to the Father. But the god of this world creates division between man and his creator, enticing him to partake from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. "Surely you can have one foot in the world and one foot in the Word. If you cooperate the Establishment will donate land and grant exemption from taxation, while the media will praise your humanistic works outside the strict Word of God.

Revelation 18:1-5, "After Brother Branham's Message indicted the world church system, I, . . . . . (insert your name) saw another Angel descending from heaven having great authority (I Thessalonians 4:14-16; Revelation 10:1; Matthew 28:18; I Corinthians 15:25; Hebrews 2:7); and the earth was illuminated owing to His glory. (Christ's end-time Bride recognize the parousia Coming of the Sun or Righteousness, the Son of God's Love veiled behind God's Prophet, shining "Light in the evening time" to call her out from Rome and her harlot daughters into Christ). And He cried in a strong voice, Fallen, fallen, is Babylon the great and become a habitation of demons, the prison of every unclean spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hated bird. For all nations have fallen owing to the intoxicated rage of her fanaticism (in peddling spiritual wares, indulgences, idolatries, superstitions and worldly compromises by means of which the apostate Church has made merchandise of men - Revelation 17:2; 18:23), and the kings of the earth have been seduced to the fornication of world-deification, and the merchants of the earth (from banksters to tradesmen and seafarers) have become rich from her wanton luxuries."

"And I heard another voice from the heaven, ("the voice of the Archangel" echoing the Message of His Prophet) saying, Come out of her, My people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues. For her sins have heaped together unto the heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities".

The Son of God's Love warned His alpha Bride to come out of Jerusalem before the apostate Hebrew church was judged; now the Son of God's Love has warned His Omega Bride to come out from the apostate Gentile world church system before it is judged. nl475.htm
